Thats like the biggest commercial jet there is, if not THE biggest plane. It is so cool how they put those things together.


I'd hate to fly on one though, like a can of fucking sardines.

I mean christ, its certified for 853 pasengers.

The A380 took the 'World's Largest Aircraft' Title away from the Antonov-225.

Thats what I was thinking, imagine the thrust on those engines! Hate to be behind it when it is taking off.

Trust can throw vehicles hundreds of feet away from it. Theres a video of a chinese truck being thrown by 747 engine.

They did that on Top Gear, drove a few cars behind a Virgin 747. Thing is, they weren't even using the full throttle because it would start ripping up the tarmac.

I've heard that they're planning versions with gyms and children's play areas on. Imagine pressing weights and suddenly the plane banks? Not pretty.

They did it on mythbusters too.

They have made the inside of the planes pretty configurable so I've heard. Richard Branson's Virgin Airlines has some interesting plans for the 380.

Indeed, they already have bars and stuff on the 747s I think.
